expandable to 4GB1 Ok now that i found the spec for your computer here we go you can install the amd 64 x2 but not Phenom x4 9950

2 As for the graphic card you seem to know a little about computers so you can install and pci express x 16 graphics card that only needs one slot but remember some need power and this mean you my have to upgrade your power supply.So really you can by any single slot pci express graphics card for your computer so it comes down to how much you want to spend.3.Ok for ram your max will be 4 gbs most likely ddr2 which mean that you have 4 ram spot in your computer.hope this help please vote for me.
